MMT Chats: 30 Under 30 Honoree, Adding Skills and Enjoying the Moment

This episode is brought to you by ISCAR with New Ideas for Machining Intelligently.

MoldMaking Technology’s 30 Under 30 Honors Program shows off the next-generation of talent making an impact across the mold manufacturing marketplace. Their stories are impressive and their energy is incredible! Working on this program has only increased my passion for this community!

Here are just a few tidbits from this 30 Under 30 honoree to whet your appetite for our full conversation:

  • Press operator who is learning to do part inspection with a MicroVu Optical inspection system, which allows her to inspect dimensions on soft silicone parts. Detailed inspection reports are included with the electronic mold manual, which is provided with every completed tool.
  • 5 years in the U.S. and upon a recommendation she came to M.R. Mold & Engineering.
  • Every mold is a challenge and we are looking for perfection all day.
  • “It’s like a car.”
  • Proud to be speaking English on an interview about her early career in moldmaking.
  • “Every technology is new for me.”
